Celebrate the Year of the Snake in Baltimore

Not sure you want to brave the cold celebrating Chinese New Year in downtown D.C.? Take a quick road trip north for an indoor bash to welcome the Year of the Snake at Walters Art Museum (600 N. Charles St., Baltimore).

On Sunday, Feb. 10 from noon to 3 p.m., you can watch traditional New Year's dance performances by the Johns Hopkins University Lion Dance Troupe, the Baltimore Chinese School and more; create your own snake art, calligraphy, and red money envelope; and view works of art depicting the attributes of the Year of the Snake (long life, security, intellect, intuition).

Walters Art Museum is located about an hour north of D.C. and is open Wed.-Sun., 10 a.m.-5 p.m. General admission is free.
